8. In what way does IFRS 9 require embedded derivatives to be accounted for?<br />

a. Embedded derivatives that would have been separately accounted for at FVTPL under IAS 39 because they were not closely related to the financial asset host<br />

will have to be separated.<br />

b. Embedded derivatives that would have been separately accounted for at FVTPL under IAS 39 because they were not closely related to the financial asset host<br />

will no longer be separated.<br />

c. Embedded derivatives are accounted for at amortized cost.<br />

d. Embedded derivatives are accounted for at fair value with gains and losses going to OCI.<br />

9. Which of the following events will not necessarily be a consequence of IFRS 9?<br />

a. Some instruments that may under IAS 39 have been measured entirely at amortized cost or as available for sale, will more likely be measured at FVTPL.<br />

b. Some financial assets that are currently disaggregated into host financial assets that are not at FVTPL will instead be measured at FVTPL in their entirety.<br />

c. Assets that are currently classified as held to maturity are likely to continue to be measured at amortized cost, as they are held to collect the contractual cash<br />

flows and often give rise to only payments of principal and interest.<br />

d. More assets will be tested for impairment and the loss will be in excess of the expected credit loss.<br />

10. What was the primary aim of the revision of IAS 39?<br />

a. It was a response to the credit crisis.<br />

b. IAS 39 was out of date.<br />

c. To remove inconsistencies between US GAAP and to improve IFRS in accounting for financial instruments.<br />

d. To stop management of earnings.<br />

11. An entity has the following four financial instruments and wishes to know whether they will be valued at fair value or valued at amortized cost.<br />

2. Bond convertible into equity of the issuer.<br />

3. An inverse floating interest rate loan.<br />

4. Bond with a variable interest rate and an interest cap.<br />

a. 1 and 2 at amortized cost, 3 and 4 at fair value.<br />

b. 1 and 4 at amortized cost, 2 and 3 at fair value.<br />

c. 2 and 3 at amortized cost, 1 and 4 at fair value.<br />

d. 3 and 4 at amortized cost, 1 and 2 at fair value.
